So it's been a long time not really posting much about music...sorry about that. Ever since I got back to Japan I've either frantically been searching for jobs or working at the job I finally got. I now have a job as a translator in a steel works engineering company in a small city in Hyogo Prefecture, which is great - getting back into the sciences while maintaining my English skills and building up my Japanese.
But yeah. 2016 was one of my favourite years mostly because I got to host this radio show, even if only for a short while. And thank you so much CJSF 90.1FM for this great opportunity!
Even though I didn't manage to do as much music exploration as I should have - I'm still yet to listen to those "critics' picks" albums like Solange and Frank Ocean and heck even David Bowie - there are a few tracks that caught my ears, and I've compiled them into a list. They *may* be subject to change, but I've been working on it for a few months now so it should stay with these tracks for a while! From interesting sonic experiments to instrumental hip-hop, to rock ballads and pure pop jams...here are my favourite tracks of 2016 in playlist form.
